Yeah, I saw that, but **Johnny L.A.** said something about condoning homocide, then you said “Not condone, commit,” ergo you kill people, and so then I was gonna play around and… aw screw it. Asshat. 😉 ---

I have a feeling Keira is one of a team of eight Russian guys paid to promote a porn site by posting similar messages to EVERY message board on the Internet. Keep being nice to her and she’ll drop the link on us some time in the next 24 hours. ---

Keep being nice to her and she’ll drop the link on us some time in the next 24 hours. I thought exactly the same thing (well, except for the eight Russian guys), given her attention-getting name and her invitation to come see her picture on “[RateMyBody.com](http://RateMyBody.com)” And does anyone else find it funny that even though she’s so new she didn’t know not to use chat-speak, she still had no trouble coding a link to her pic? ---

Chat-speak goes on in message boards all over the place. So it’s possible to be familiar with message boards tags and use chat-speak at the same time. If I read you correctly. ---

I don’t know, she sounds an awful lot like an 18 year old girl. I say that not just through my intense language analysis abilities, but also because if she turned out to be a hairy 35 year old russian guy, my penis would shrivel and retreat into my abdomen like a frightened turtle, never to return. Although I suppose if she were a 35 year old russian guy the opportunity for cyber sex would increase a great deal… 😉 ---

Or she could be a young girl recruited to work for some hairy Russian guys (or even [RateMyBody.com](http://RateMyBody.com)) and paid per site view. ---

> [@Shaolinrabbit](#): > > But then she’d still be a hot young girl… that seems ok in my mind, but I’m a geek… Not to belabor a point, but she may only be a young part time worker recruited in order to utilize her ability at teen-speak and not necessarily the one whose picture we’re seeing. But hey, everyone’s having fun so what the hell. Maybe I shouldn’t have said anything. I made my point so I’m going to bow out of here for now. ---

I know you’re bowing out and you’ve made your point, but unless things have changed in my absence, I didn’t think MPSIMS was the place to make those kind of suggestions and accusations about other posters. Are we not supposed to still email the mods if we think something’s fishy? (No offense, **Keira** , I’m sure you don’t smell fishy at all. Unless you have a summer job at the docks or something.) ---

Unless you have a summer job at the docks or something.) You may be right, I don’t know. My comment you referred to was a hypothetical situation in which I posted a thought about what \*could \* be the case. I don’t believe I’ve accused her specifically of any wrongdoing, I’ve just been pondering (and posing) possibilities based on what life experience has shown me to often be the case. She and the nature of her posts may be perfectly legitimate. I’m just saying that if it looks like a duck, and walks like a duck,…etc. But then again, it could just be Elton John in a duck suit. We’ll just have to wait and see. ---
